The Atlanta Hawks will be without forward Paul Millsap (knee) for the sixth consecutive game when the team takes on the Phoenix Suns Monday night.
Millsap was originally expected to be out just a couple games. But even after MRI results game back negative on his injured knee, the All-Star still remains sidelined.
Millsap is averaging a career-best 18.1 points to go with 7.7 rebounds on the season. Needless to say, it's been a big loss for Atlanta. The team is in the midst of a seven-game losing streak and has lost all five games the star power forward has sat.
New addition Ersan Ilyasova has received the starts in Millsap's stead, averaging 11.8 points and 9.0 rebounds during that span. He remains a viable under-the-radar DFS option against a bad Suns defense Monday night.
